That is not what I asked you.

How do you know the Minister of power is doing an exceptionally good job?

Is it because he gave your boyfriend free electric power for 99 years?

Everything you read on DISCOS,NNPC, MINISTRY OF POVERTY ALIEVIATION= CORRUPTION.
1.Discos have no plans for making Nigeria great!
2.NNPC is a Dead dog but wants to be relevant - as they have been exposed- with Dangote Refinery on c#board - Past Govts have been using it as Kalokalo- where the leaders have no say but govt( executives were just eating the Oil) ,while Poverty is seeing everywhere.
Up till now, Govt Refineries have failed to come alive because our leaders prioritise their Personal benefits above the People that elected them.
Very Shameful Indeed.

I don't understand why FG will leave Nigerians in the hands of distribution companies to be defrauded and do nothing about it

BEDC in Benin will carry all this estimated billings and put it inside your new prepaid meter so you will start paying for what you did not use

When will this official scamming of Nigerians in the name of estimated billings stop?

If giving Nigerians free prepaid meters is/as the only palliative Tinubu can achieved.. He shall be forever be remembered once in a while in the good books of the county just as OBJ enjoys being tagged to GSM.

You see am now
You see how Nigerians are being robbed blind by those thieving DisCos?
From this report, it shows that it is easier to see a bottle of beer in Islamic Bauchi than to see a prepaid meter
And we know what goes on when there's no prepaid meter. Arbitrary billing, extortion by disco officials, disconnection just for the sake of it and most importantly paying for power you never used. That's what 85% of Nigerians are going through in the hands of these DisCos.
Yet some people will be defending these clowns
Yet this does not stop them from asking residents to buy transformers and pay for repairs!!
Dem just dey bring heavy bills each month, every month there's 20% increment for the last 3 months.

We've been battling for prepaid Meter for over a year now, nothing insight.

I paid 15-20k bills for light I don't use more than 3 times in a month. I only return from work every 2 weeks, sometimes once in a month.

This country is gone

1. Agbado is not Ogun state
2. Ogun state is under Ibadan Disco not Ikeja
3. Nobody gets 12hrs to 16hrs light daily in Nigeria. That's a lie
4. It's virtually impossible to pay 4k in estimated billing at least in the past 4 years. Not even in the north is it possible. Quote me anywhere

Well, being abusive is not how to win friends and influence people.

It funny how people brazenly display ignorance with so much confidence....it really amuses me!!

Agbado is in iffo LGA and which LG bears that name in Lagos state .

IKEDC covers upto some parts of Sango and addo odo- ota LGA in Ogun state.

As I am typing this right now I currently have public power running and we do 16 to 18 hrs conveniently.

As recently as 2022,they were still paying 4k monthly but power was very poor as they hardly did 6 hrs a day.

Are you aware of the existence of Agbado/Oke-odo LCDA in Lagos state?

It is impossible to have 12,16,18 hrs light concurrently in Nigeria

Just last week we had grid collapse twice

Was your area exempted?

4k bills for estimated bill stopped at around 208/19. I know what I'm saying

The Agbado I am talking about is in iffo LGA in Ogun state.

There is regular power in my area as we speak atleast 16 to 18 hrs and this can go on for several weeks.....I just got back from ikire in osun state where I had to depend so much on my power bank but since I got back over 2 wks now,I haven't had any need for it or my generator.

As at 2022 in the area I mentioned they were paying 4k for about 6 hrs a day though it was quite erratic.

I know what I am saying.

So national grid collapse did not affect your area
What area is that?
What about when the Minister for Darkness came out to say they were owing gas suppliers $1.5bn as the reason for no light. You still had 18hrs light then? Haba!! Be taking this thing easy na
I can show you receipts of estimated billing in 2022 if you doubt me. No area in Nigeria was paying 4k except if your mother-in-law was cutting corners with the Disco guys

See, I believe it is ok sometimes to go hard on people though I never do untill someone starts it. You can check my comments. But even at that, I believe it is a glaring lack of respect for one's parents to insult the parents of others. I wouldn't do it except someone shoots first. I give as much as I take when it comes to such things.
I let yours slide because regardless of our differences of opinion, I kinda like how you present your points even if laced with lies. That's why I am shocked you could go so low. But don't take my letting it slide for lack of what to say back.
I enjoin you to be guided going forward
